I was just entirely unable to get 3.4.4 to bootstrap a 4.3.2 compiler. I
used 4.3.0 and it worked. I forget what I used to build the 4.3.0 with in the
first place. I think the documentation needs updating to say you'll need to
use an early/intermediate 4.x version to bootstrap your way past the 3.x/4.x
boundary, but I couldn't say exactly where the break lies.

Well, the start of it is, but the final release is only three years old.
Cygwin only moved to 4.x just last year.
